(Not all parts are in order, I'm just posting as I finish. Please, please, please post feedback. All comments and suggestions are accepted.) Set in the not-so-distant future (2030-2050), a business mastermind and his private army attempt to gain control of the world as nations across the globe tear at each other's throats for resources and territory. By secretly supplying each bloc of nations with his weapons and technology, he is able to pit each faction against each other until he comes out on top. However, a group of US Special Forces operatives stumble upon his corrupt business, and fight an uphill battle to bring an end to the Third World War. Whether or not they survive, is up to their ability and wit as they are pitted against one of the most brutal and efficient assassins in the world, alongside an army of machines and men.

Zephyr: End of Ages
In the deep future, there is only war. Giant mech suits dance in a flurry of blades and bullets across the battlefield. They're helmed by a duo of pilots connected through the Neural link, an advancement in neuroscience that allows data to be streamed directly to the brain. Mori is a young pilot graduate who is just stepping out onto the battlefield for the first time, with only his Zephyr and his partner, Ichika, to rely on. What awaits this young hero as he navigates the volatile world that the deep future has birthed?
Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis
The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?Kumpleto
The Vengeance Trilogy.
A trilogy of military hard SciFi short stories, each of which stands on its own but is linked to the earlier parts. Part 1 is my attempt at writing what a battle in space might really be like. Part 2 is - well, as a student of military history, I was struck by how some things in the military life have seemed to be constant over the centuries. Part 3 is the result of trying to imagine what an infantry fire-fight might be like in the 22nd century or beyond. How does technology play into it?Kumpleto
Echos of Tomorrow
Echoes of Tomorrow The Dominion Cycle In a world ruled by aliens, trust is a luxury-and love is a betrayal. Elara Morgan went to sleep to save the world. But when she wakes up 81 years later, she finds a broken Earth under the control of the Nai'thari, an alien species that has shaped humanity's future in their own image. Alone, disoriented, and desperate for answers, Elara is forced to rely on the one being who might offer them: Kael, a mysterious and unsettling Nai'thari who claims to disagree with his kind's conquest of Earth. But his icy exterior hides a deeper struggle-one that might make him the most dangerous person she's ever met. Though their worlds are worlds apart, a reluctant alliance forms between Elara and Kael as they search for a way to fight back against the Dominion. But the more they work together, the more Elara finds herself drawn to the alien who both terrifies and fascinates her. Torn between hatred for the empire he represents and a growing, undeniable attraction to him, Elara must grapple with a future where love could be both her salvation and her downfall. In a world where nothing is as it seems, and trust is a slow burn, Elara will have to decide: Can she love an enemy, or will the bond between them destroy everything they're fighting for?Kumpleto
Ariadne Alternative: 2035
The year is 2035, alien drop pods have fallen out of the sky and destroyed major cities, alien troops known as Hostile Alien Lifeforms (HAL) expanding like a swarm of locusts. In the Edmonton Impact Zone (EIZ), an outpost known as Ariadne has been built, like other outposts its function is to study the HALs and defend humanity. In the midst of the chaos, can love be found, or will the aliens crush it just like everything else? (The story is still in-progress, I've just been a little busy as of late so think of it as a temporary hiatus maybe? Either way I hope to post again soon, thanks y'all! -TT39)
Brain Switch
The year is 2078, during which China and the United States are struggling to be the top superpower. The CIA gets involved with new technology to copy and switch people's minds to help maintain the USA's power advantage. Though things don't go according to the CIA's plans. And to complicate things, many fear that the "Mark of the Beast" is the sign that the devil wishes to gain more control of the world. This story will keep you in suspense, while in real life these technologies are actually coming closer to reality. I would say this story is rated PG13 if it were to become a movie.Kumpleto
When Empires Meet
The world is rapidly changing. On Earth, geopolitical tensions rise to a breaking point, with nations poised on the edge of catastrophic conflict. But far beyond the planet's atmosphere, a different war rages-one that spans the vastness of space. In the depths of the galaxy, two great powers collide in a brutal, unending war. Their fleets clash in distant systems and barren asteroid fields, fighting for dominance over resources and territory. This is a war of empires, driven by ambition and desperation, where survival comes at a cost few can bear. For now, Earth's struggles and the galactic conflict remain separate, their paths unknowingly intertwined. But the threads of fate are drawing tighter, and the actions of soldiers, leaders, and nations on both sides are on a collision course. When these two worlds meet, the consequences will reshape not just one, but the future of all. "When Empires Meet" is a sweeping tale of ambition, survival, and the interwoven destinies of two wars waged across vastly different scales. As the battles rage on, the choices made in the heat of conflict will echo far beyond the battlefield-binding two worlds together in ways no one could have imagined.
The Hawaiian Special Forces
This is the story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo 2015. The goal: 50,000 word RAW draft written entirely in the month of November. Unlike most of my stories, which I prefer to edit before posting, I'm actually going to post updates to this at the end of each day in chapter-sized chunks. The idea behind this story is that a terrorist attack in the near future causes the US to go hyper-isolationist, to the point that it abandons Hawaii and Alaska to fend for themselves. They do, forming the United Pacific States (maybe with a few other island countries). Hawaii then goes on to turn itself into the new world police with stealthy, genetically modified cyber-soldiers. I'm marking this story as mature because there will be action scenes, and probably some interesting perspectives on nudity and relationships. I'm not planning on anything explicit, but this won't be a kids book. Validated winner at 50,040 words!Kumpleto
THE END OF WAR (Watty Award Winner)
A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***Kumpleto

They have also unprecedently grown their own unique abilities and powers by expanding to their natural habitat, which make them even more destructive. They are hyperintelligent, indestructible, uncontrollable, unbeatable, and unstoppable. Even worse, they want to be the superior species on earth and destroy all humans that stand in their path! Who is behind this and what is their goal? Are the hybrid super soldiers able to be controlled? Will humanity find a way to destroy them? If not, what will become of the world and humanity? In this thrilling science fiction story written by Alexios Salvador, explore the consequences that immoral and uncapped progression of warfare can have on the world. In this book series, humanity has created a weapon that is way too powerful, extremely destructive, and impossible to control, one with its own will and consciousness, a weapon with a deep hatred for humans. A weapon that wants to eat them for dinner and leave no room for dessert. The decimation has begun.Kumpleto
